FAQ

Here are answers to a few of the questions I get asked. Please do get in touch, if your answer is not below.

How long do you perform for?

There is no specific length I can perform for. The most common length is 2 hours, however, I have performed at day events, providing magic all day (with breaks). I charge an hourly rate (for up to 3 hours), then I have a 1/2 day rate and day rate. So please do bear this mind

How far do you travel?

Although I am based in Edinburgh, Scotland. I perform through Scotland and the UK. In Scotland, I have travelled as far as the Isle of Lewis – performing regularly in Inverness, Dundee, Perth, Aberdeen, the Highlands, Glasgow, Edinburgh. In England I have travelled as far as Devon to perform. So don’t let the distance put you off contacting me. If you are wanting for me to perform outside of Edinburgh, I will charge for travel expenses, however, I am happy to discuss with you a cost that is good for both of us.

How much do you charge?

My rate varies according to the type of event, length, of time you want me to perform and time of the day. Please do get in touch with me and I am happy to provide you with a quote.

Do you do children’s magic shows?

Although I can provide magic for all ages, I currently don’t do children’s parties, for children aged 8 years and under. My magic is predominately for adults. I like to bring that element of wonder (that we have as a child) back for adults. I am very happy to provide magic for families, which have children present. At many events (e.g. weddings, parties, etc…) children are present – so I make sure I have some magic up-my-sleave – for children as young as 2 years old.

Children will be present at my event

As mentioned above, that is fine. My magic has no age restrictions – there is no swearing!. So I am happy to provide magic for children of any age – young or old.

“Highly recommend hiring! I hired Jim the Magician for my boyfriends Halloween Birthday Party. In terms of the booking process, none of the other magicians came close; he was quick to respond, easy to deal with, and a reasonable price (other magicians were coming in at RIDICULOUS prices). He turned out to be well worth his fee. Our guests were blown away, and it really took the house party to the next level – something different and special! Great magic skills. Would recommend him to friends and family for any upcoming events – thanks again Jim!”
